Zitat:Türkei plant Bau von drei Atomkraftwerken

Istanbul (dpa) - Die Türkei plant für das Jahr 2011 den Bau von drei Atomkraftwerken mit einer Gesamtleistung von 4500 Megawatt. Das sagte Energieminister Hilmi Güler am Freitag vor Journalisten im türkischen Nuklearforschungszentrum in Istanbul. Die Standortfrage stehe allerdings noch nicht zur Entscheidung an. Zur Begründung für den Bau der Atommeiler, die mit einheimischen Uran betrieben werden sollen, führte der Minister an, dass die Türkei von 2010 an mit einem Engpass in der Stromversorgung rechnen müsse, wenn keine Vorkehrungen getroffen würden.

Der Bau eines ersten türkischen Kernkraftwerkes ist bislang immer wieder aufgeschoben worden. Ein in Akkuyu am Mittelmeer geplanter Atommeiler ist über die Planungsphase nicht hinausgekommen. Kritiker hatten sich unter anderem wegen der Erdbebengefahr gegen den Bau gewandt

Zitat:Putin besucht zum ersten Mal die Türkei
Ankara (APA/ag.) - Der russische Präsident Putin wird am Sonntag zu einem historischen Staatsbesuch in der Türkei erwartet. Es ist die erste Reise eines Kremlchefs seit 32 Jahren in die türkische Hauptstadt. Russland und die Türkei haben zwar seit Ende des Kalten Krieges florierende Wirtschaftsbeziehungen, auf politischer Ebene gab es aber wegen Differenzen zum Krisenherd Tschetschenien immer wieder Streitereien.


Putin wird der erste Russische Präsident sein der die Türkei in den letzten 32 Jahren besucht hat.

Putin Determined to Improve Bilateral Relations


Russian President Vladimir Putin said they are determined to improve bilateral relations with Turkey.

As the first Russian president to visit Turkey in 32 years, Putin said yesterday his visit will open new doors in Turkish-Russian relations. Putin arrived in Ankara with his wife, Lyudmila Alexandrovna Putin, and attended a dinner last night hosted by Turkish President Ahmet Necdet Sezer. The Russian President said the important relationship between Turkey and Russia is bound by commercial, economic and political ties and committed to further efforts to making the relationship even better.

Sezer described the visit as a milestone in furthering the relationship into a multidimensional partnership. He emphasized the similarities between the two countries' approaches to international and regional issues. The Turkish President underlined the importance Turkey places on improving relations in every field. In a subtle criticism of unilateral action by the US, Sezer said: "The new world order should be formed with international cooperation and principles to monitor the common interests of humanitarian and international laws. Therefore, we believe that the central position of the United Nations, which has the authority to act on behalf of the international community, should be protected and strengthened."

Putin will begin his official meetings today with a visit to Anitkabir, the mausoleum of the founder of modern Turkey, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. The Russian President will also be meeting with Speaker of the Parliament Bulent Arinc, Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul.

Nö gar nicht, ist nur Politrethorik gemischt mit ein bisschen merkantilem Bewusstsein

Zitat:Signatures with Russia after December 17


Agreements concerning significant issues, which were reached as a consensus between Ankara and Moscow during the historical visit of Russian President Vladimir Putin last week, will be left until after the December 17 Summit in order to avoid reactions.

Russian diplomatic sources traveling with Putin's delegation determined that agreements with Turkey depended on whether Turkey receives a date to begin negotiations from the European Union (EU) during its December 17 summit. Russia is also seeking accession, but into the World Trade Organization (WTO). Both sides agreed that solutions to significant issues had to be left until after the new year.

Russian sources who evaluated Putin's visit for Zaman said yesterday that his visit was beneficial, though signatures had to be postponed until Erdogan's visit to Russia, which will be on January 15th.

The sources continued, "You stand on the verge of the European Union (EU). We are also following the WTO membership process. We should act according to those." While concluding that bilateral agreements were deliberately left for the post EU decision and not because of the insufficiency of the legal infrastructure, the sources claimed that some agreements might be signed by the lower level bureaucrats because of possible international pressures.

"Europeans perceive both of us as 'Asians'. We have the potential. Fate directs us to make cooperation." He also underlined the significance of the TUPRAS tender, which was won by Tatneft and cancelled later on. For Russia, for whom this was an incomprehensible situation, the source said : "Tatars may take TUPRAS tender and then build the Samsun-Ceyhan pipeline."

The Russian source said they had invited Turkish sources to Russia. He also Russia revealed that Russia wants to build a Trans Trakya (Trans Thrace) pipeline because Turkey impedes the passage of oil tankers through the Straits. Turkey ahs also offered to build the Samsun-Ceyhan pipeline.
